Alex awoke up abruptly, sitting up with a gasp.

Sweat was running down his face and his heart was racing and tears were building up in his eyes, but he wouldn't let them fall. He was weak when he was captured by Scorpia, he couldn't be weak again now.

Alex glanced at the clock, which he soon discovered read the time 3:43. Great. He knew he wouldn't be able to get back to sleep, so Alex went into the bathroom to shower. Maybe that would help him clear his mind.

10 minutes later, Alex went back into his room, slightly refreshed, but he still had hours to go before K-Unit woke up and he didn't want them finding out about his nightmares, they made him appear weak and vulnerable.

After a few moments of deliberation, Alex decided to go on his phone and amuse himself in some way until K-Unit were awake.

Hours later, Alex was still enraptured by Flappy Bird, and didn't notice when K-Unit began to stir, but looked away from the phone when he smelt food cooking. The smell made him gag, not because it wasn't a nice smell it was just...

Alex wasn't sure actually. After Jacks death, he didn't feel the need to eat, and now he was completely put off the idea of food. Of course, if K-Unit noticed he wasn't eating, they were bound to worry, so Alex decided to get some food so they wouldn't become suspicious.

The young spy padded down the hallway with his hoodie swampinghis slim frame and pyjamas hanging off him, to where he assumed the kitchen was, since he could already hear K-Unit gathering in there.

He pushed open the door, and Fox looked up from where he was sat and snorted

'You look...tired, Cub' Fox said, smirking.

Alex groaned. His bedraggled appearance probably didn't make him look like he was the best agent in MI6, did it? Alex brushed it off and tried to ignore the smirks from the other men sat around the table.

'I'm hungry' Lie 'What is there to eat?'

'Snake is making bacon and eggs' Fox said, gesturing to the stove where Snake stood.

Alex didn't think he could stomach that right now, but nodded, and sat down next to Fox, pointedly looking up at him.

'Hello'

Fox laughed, along with Eagle who was sat opposite them, half asleep.

'Is that some lame attempt at starting a conversation?'

'Yup'

Fox was about to say something else, but Snake interrupted him by placing full plates in front of them, and sitting down as well.

Alex felt slightly sick even looking at the food, but picked up his fork a nibbled at an egg, hardly eating anything.

'So, where's Wolf?' Alex asked

Fox and Eagle exchanged amused glances, but the latter replied.

'Well, you see my dear Cub, Wolf isn't exactly a Morning person. None of us dare wake him up in fear of being dismembered, so he will probably be awake about noon'

Alex have him a small smile to show his amusement, but suddenly stood, mumbling something about not being hungry.

Fox raised an eyebrow 'Really? You haven't eaten anything! I thought you were hungry?'

'I'm not anymore'

Alex then left the room, leaving the three men confused by his behaviour.

Eagle broke the silence

'I'm confused'

Fox agreed with him.

Snake soon came up with a solution.

'Teenagers act weird all the time. Cub here is a teenager, therefore he a going to act weird. See! It makes sense!'

The three men were easily satisfied with the explanation, and settled back to their food, continuing their conversations.
